One of these days, I'll learn - and I mean really learn, like to the core of my being learn - how to maintain perspective.

In starting this psychology stuff, and in learning some bits and pieces (to be followed up later) about cognitive restructuring, and how to correct destructive thought processes, I've started to realize how many of my dramatic issues are of my own devising.

My final did not go well. I felt, in fact, that it went miserably. But it was FINE - definitely not perfect, but FINE. Of course, I had histrionics about it anyway.

Breathe. Relax. Feel the earth. Do nothing extra. And above all, Don't Panic!
